When Human Decency Disappears, What’s Left? »

Posted by: Mary Ellen/Divine Democrat at Bad Habit What happens when human decency ceases to exist in our country? I’m sure you’re wondering if I’m going to go off into some kind of religious tangent, but I’m not. This has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with being…human. This is how this [...]

“Progressives” for Ageism »

It goes without saying that most of the major bloggers — Markos, Josh Marshall, Digby, and many others — were so blinded in their desire to sink Hillary that they allowed (and even engaged in) unrelenting sexism and race-baiting. Their behavior during the campaign was so far from being progressive that I’ve concluded that they’re [...]

A Statement of No Quarter’s Ethical Practices [Updated] »

UPDATE: This has nothing to do with trolls here. Those are easy to take care of, as long as you readers e-mail me (susanunpc @ gmail dot com) with the information along with a COMPLETE copy of their comment, which helps me search for the comment. I am talking about other blogs and blog posts. [...]

Why Obama Must Lose: One Progressive’s Opinion »

The Just Say No Deal/PUMA movement is evidence of a deep rift in the Democratic Party, one I believe the polls are not reflecting. Contrary to what the neo-liberals may say, the movement is not comprised of bitter old women — although many are bitter, many are women, and some are perhaps old. Instead, this [...]

odingo ate my savior! odingo ate my savior! »

Odinga ate my saviour! appeared on our horizons with claims he is Obama’s cousin in a BBC news report in January of this year, two years after Obama visited his father’s homeland. After the Standard in Kenya was burned, Obama decided to offer criticism of Kenya and the current president. Earlier this year discord broke [...]

Preparation for tonight’s NO Quarter Radio show »

I’ll be hosting DCMediagirl’s Hour of Power tonight at 10:30 pm ET/7:30 pm PT. Advisory to follow. In the meantime, prepare by reading up on Bob Herbert’s bizzaro phallic obsession (take a look a few postings down) and this little doozy by Maureen Dowd, who outdoes herself yet again. As an English Literature major I [...]

Parade of the Trolls »

What I love best about No Quarter is the smart, lively debate about issues of critical concern, the colorful and flamboyant language that is often enough wildly clever and can be knee-slapping funny, and the fact that it does not shut out visitors simply for disagreeing with each other or the author of the post. [...]

Oh, My Aching Head… »

So, I was thinking this morning – How many policy changes has Obama made since he proclaimed himself Master of the Universe on June 3, 2008? Some are better known than others, because even some of the big ones had to be covered by the MSM. But let’s see what we can find: June 4, [...]

Totalitarian Tactics and an Illegitimate Nominee »

Neither the main stream media nor the Democratic Party nor even the Obama campaign itself has come to terms with the damage Obama’s tactics have done to our Party. The damage was facilitated by the media and the big blogs. Obama’s first task was controlling the media. Politicalcenter writes: Taking their cue from totalitarian regimes, [...]

No Quarter A Major Player in the Presidential Race »

No Quarter‘s detractors can refer to us as fringe and irrelevant, but Presidential Watch 08‘s map of the 297 most influential blogs writing on the Presidential race reveals we are one of the few progressive websites that is actually shaping and determining the terms of debate this election cycle.   An explanation of Presidential Watch 08‘s map [...]

The UnDemocratic Party: The New Culture War pt 2 »

Millions of people believe that the Democratic primary was fixed, which is a major reason why former Clinton supporters will never vote for Barack Obama. Some may vote for John McCain, some may vote for an alternative candidate, and some may sit this one out. But when surfing through the internet, one can’t help but be struck [...]

The Three Acts of a Stolen Nomination »

The Obamabots are in a panic. Even though he has claimed the nomination still we Hillary supporters have not seen the light. They are in shock that we are not swarming with the masses to the selected one. On Wednesday, I wrote a defiant post declaring that I would never vote for Obama. An Obamabot, [...]

The New Culture War, part 1 »

After Hillary suspended her campaign and called on her supporters to back Obama, a dear friend and active supporter of Obama, sent me an article to read and asked me to tell her what I thought about it. My friend, a long time feminist, has contributed to women’s issues for decades and her support of [...]

Obamatrons On the Attack »

We have outstripped our servers’ ability to keep up One consequence is the problem with “Comment” moderation and Spam. Some of you, for no [...]

Bought and Bossed Bloggers at MyDD? [UPDATE] »

What will months of shameless advocacy for a political candidate enable one to procure? What will months of mindlessly paraphrasing emails from campaign operatives enable one to procure? What will months of banning supporters of Hillary Clinton enable one to procure? What will months of misrepresenting the policies of Hillary Clinton on a major political [...]
